Baddestguyp:


Honestly I thought Mark was going to have a villain arc...

But right now the writers still can't even let him have a single kill

Just watch and see where this is new Kill all MFs lands him in.. 😑😑

NobleStag007:


Homelander of course.

He's straight out a wicked man

Lol, na baba go first die.. 😂

DieRich5:
house of the dragon season 1 and 2 is better than GOT season 1 and 2 and WOT season 1 and 2


GoT S3 to S7 is the best thing that happened in series industry

I'd have to disagree..

I still think GOT S1&2 is superior to HOTD S1&2

majesticguy:


The thing shock me self. Imagine comparing Conquest to Thragg, Thragg way easily overpowered Omni-Man and Invincible, papa and pikin both collect better beating.

They're lot of viltrumites who you could say are close in strength and their battles can go either way..
I.e mark, Nolan, conquest, kregg..

But you see Thragg, he everybody with considerable gap.

zoroby:


How is Thragg stronger than Conquest. Conquest that is feared and avoided by all Viltrumites

Spoilers ahead 👇👇

Conquest against thragg??

Thragg wey solo both mark and Nolan..


Sorry for the spoilers 😞😞

I'm ready 😁

DieRich5:
Korra wey dem beat enter avatar state still beat her comot from the state.

Apart from Unalaq who you could still argue that it was his knowledge of spirits that allowed him to rip out raava out of Korra because she was actually already ahead in that fight..

Who again did this thing that y'all keep taking about.

Kaycee7:
4 people. And none of them could provide any valid reasons, besides not liking his vibes. Meanwhile, people were being attacked by dark spirits. And that dude was the only one who seemed to have a helpful solution.

Thank God someone finally said it..

One thing about Korra is that she actually wants to do her job, yeah she might fail but that doesn't deter her no matter what.

And people seem to forget that even Tenzin itted that Unalaq teachings were useful when he saw how Korra dealt with dark spirits later.

But agenda must agend..

You guys..

I can acrosss this documentary on X.

It was made by a Nigerian Med student in Benin and almost even made it to the Oscars.

It's truly a great piece of work that highlights the travails of those who society have left behind..

It's just a 40mins watch, I promise you, it'll be worth your time.

Illusioneffect:

Yes in Hollywood - plus she's too old to play the character - Sue Storm was in her early - to mid late 20s in the comics

Are you really just regurgitating Critical Drinker's words??

PraiseGod4u:


9 seasons of terrible writing 🤣🤣

Dey whine yourself

Doesn't make it wrong.

Illusioneffect:

I hope a fuk u doesn't kill his career

Lol, the Same Todd Philips that rehashed same story for 3 hangover movies is giving a f-u..

Big cap..

He simply didn't have it in him to recreate the magic of the first.

And just like he did for the hangover, I was always skeptical of this joker sequel.
Making it a musical when Joaquin Phoenix who isn't known for singing as the lead was when something wasn't right.

But can't lie, I wanted it to prove me wrong, too bad sha..

abduleez1:


Dave Bautista is tall. 6ft4in no be beans. And he's way taller than Tom Hardy who played the same character in The Dark Knight Rises.

He can easily gain weight back if he wants to.
Bane is a character he's always wanted.

He already said the bane's ship has sailed past..

But I wouldn't put it past him though.

abduleez1:


Damn, that Joys of Motherhood would slap AF. I how I thief this book from my very close friend back then. From borrowing the book to never giving it back. Na other books and bribes wey I no care about I use whine my friend.
Last Days At Forcados High is also a gem. Honestly, we have all the resources to produce top quality, our studios here are not just serious enough.


I just ed some short stories I used to buy in my Junior secondary days going to school....there's this author who focuses on a niche tales of supernatural stories/ beings or retellings. Dude loved stories about Mami Wata, Snake Girl, evil forest and the likes...those stories where gripping to me back then. Can't the authors name, but I knew there was a woman who sold a good number of that guys books close to my school and I saved up my excess change to buy those short story books.
E just dey pain me say I no be art student.... There were many good books I missed during my time in school cos I was a science student and we had this weird mentality of looking down on art department as the place the unambitious goes to or the unserious ones hiding place.

Those short stories could easily be turned into anthology miniseries. I wonder what a filmmaker like Mike Flanagan would do to those horror short stories about Mermaids, Snake Girl and Ogbanje and dem likes.

Yep, seems that EbonyLife/Netflix deal is dead cos there's been literally nothing like you said other than Olotúre from them. I that film gave me promise that we were on the right track. Never watched the part 2 cos I felt it wasn't needed. There was also King of Boys which blew me away.
I'm still surprised how Nollywood veered off of these and focused on giving us the "Jaiye Jaiye" part of life with them Chief Daddy and the likes...now Oyo Empire craze.

I think the author's name is Ben Akponine Samuel.

He wrote many of all those short children books that time.

DeeScan:
who did they parody batman with??

Tek knight..

I'll say he's a juxtapose of parody on batman and iron man..
But mostly Batman.

Achilles100:


Shey na bastard he be?

Yh

Does anyone know where I am X-Men 97?

Baddestguyp:




The visuals are definitely good. You guys should be grateful to get an ATLA live action series sef...
I think it will do well enough for a season 2 at least. Since it's just 3 seasons, it's almost guaranteed to be renewed


Me I'm still praying for HBO (not Netflix) to do an Attack on Titan live action series sometime...

I believe Warner Bros were trying to purchase the rights of AOT some time ago..

So there's a good chance that if they make it a series, that can get actualised.

BlackManta:
Ryan Gosling winning the only Oscar for Barbie despite eight nominations

"Men" go mount on that hill..

Meksbig:


"Don't mess with the special investigators" Lol

My biggest gripe was with the plenty explanations. The dialogue sucked big time

I believe the oversaturation of characters..

And formulaic style of season 2 is the problem.
There isn't enough intrigues like in season 1 because we're already familiar with reacher now.

TopeQs:


Life is weird truly....
By the way, not that I don't like him, I honestly like listening to him because he's always keeping it real with his topics and discussion. In a world of woke-ness, he has refused to give in and say the truth as it is no matter the backlash, I always like him for that.
I just don't find him funny at all.

I've never watched any of his specials and laughed, just some chuckles here and there. And I've watched EVERYTHING he's has put out in the last 10 years thereabout.

Note: I'll still watch this new special, just mentioned you because you said you're his number 1 fan, was surprised there's someone who actually find him funny in Nigeria.

I do find him funny and a good number of my friends also.

Barbie 2023
8.5/10

So I decided to start this year with probably the biggest cinematic phenomenon of 2023...

And I've gotta say, what was all the fuss about?

Trust me, I'm not one for feminist bullshit and patriarchy crap, but if you ever needed a movie to do it right and send it's message, then Barbie did it 100%.

I mean, it was a satire on our society..
Sure they amped up some of the details, but that's exactly what it was created for.

I came into this movie with my guard up, thinking I was going to see a movie about hating men, but nahh, it completely took me in the other direction.

Don't get me wrong I still cringed whenever I heard the word "patriarchy" every 20mins or so...
But it still fit into the story.

Funny enough, Ken's story is a story that I feel should resonate with many guys, I mean not feeling good enough at first, getting a false respect you think will get you the girl and then discovering that you have to live your life for you.

I mean, how the hell did people come up with it being anti-man from this.

I find it hypocritical that we often try to dictate how strong women should be written but when it comes to Men, then they have to be a certain way.

I don't know about you, but I love diversity of characters..
I love me a guy like Reacher who embodies the essence of masculinity
But I also appreciate a Ken like character who many guys can resonate with, who aspires to be more.

The Martell guys weren't even bad sef, they were just trying to put things the way they believed was right.

FINAL NOTES
The acting was very good, tho I didn't see anything from Ryan gosling and Ariella ferrera's performances that people were raving about.
I think they did their job quite well, but not awards contender level.

Maybe a rewatch will change my mind tho.

The musical numbers were all excellent

And in a period where many movies which delve into issues as Barbie did fail to stick the landing..

Barbie did an excellent job in the end of answering it's biggest questions.

• It's ok to not have it all together, but you should still strive to be better.
• And it's ok to fulfill a role like just being a mum.

I also love the fact that Barbieland wasn't just resolved into an Utopia of equality but instead a steady progression into equality which I believe our World has been moving towards.

The fact that I watched it in our family house with my mum and sister present in the final scene where Barbie touches Ruth and sees the various experiences of girls coupled with that sirene like voice of Billie eilish adding more dimensions to the emotional weight
was the icing on the cake.

I guess my only problem were with some aspects of the writing that I felt were too on the nose..

Other than that a pretty great movie in my opinion.

abduleez1:
James Gunn continues to cook with his casting... 🤩

Nah, every cast announcement for this movie has been great.

Kaycee7:
By the gods, I cannot wait to experience this. Walker Scobell could very well be on his way to super stardom with this role.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHb7au6Gmls?si=iiNV6AD0HvQMvKWU

Omo this looks so good.

Finally, a series that stays exactly true to the source material.

abduleez1:


You're doing well. 🤭🤭

Pls who knows the name of this actress featured here..

I'm trying to one of her movies..

Baddestguyp:
Xbox sef dey hyped...

The finale must be epic...

Haters sef are watching closely

Do you know what time exactly AOT releases in Nigeria?

Carlylepneuma:
Hello there, wts up wit house of Dragon now? Abi there idea don finish ni? Someone should enlighten me pls...

Lol, house of dragons would be the last show to be lacking in ideas, the problem will even be that there's too much they'll have to drop some.

Don't worry, it coming back next year.

Ahmed4002:


Amazon fire stick

Android TV or phone

IOS

All work's on it

Thought you were a critical drinker's fan...

He had praise for it, which is a rarity for him these days for superhero flicks

ErenXSatoru:
looks like another well cooked meal for Scorcese😭🔥🔥

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cx9nCHsemc?si=hZvRd1Q3sA7JdnSY

This has some of the best acting I've ever seen from a trailer..

This and coupled with what I have seen from the Ferrari treiler..
And with Joaquin Phoenix and Ridley Scott still coy on their cookings..

Safe to say Oppenheimer won't have it easy at the Oscars as many first thought..

Well I'm all here for the bloodbath.

pu7pl3:


Ballsy move
I will be there

Truly.

But jeymes Samuel has proven himself to be capable of imagination.

He might be our next Tarantino.

drizzle0007:



You have the worst review score on this thread.

That's all I have to say.

As in

NaijaMemes:



Or maybe people are just catching fun here.

No matter how you catch cruise, your true nature will inevitably seep into reality.
You just can't escape it..

And it gets easier to spot it when you're always taking.

While it's not a bad thing to have an opinion. Bad habits can be spotted from patterns of what you say.
